The Story of Stuff

Thanks for Jacqueline McGinnis for bring this video to my attention. The Story of Stuff, by Annie Leonard.

Food for thought.....



I'll be sharing this with my children as it's a great way to get a serious point across. Thanks again to Jacqueline for sharing it this week.

    I saw this video last year, what a eye opening truth.
    Thanks for sharing and reminding me once again that we don't need all that STUFF!
    Warm Regards

  3. Hi Andrew,

    Thanks so much for the reminder that we really really don't need as much as we think we need.

  4. Hi,
    Thanks for stopping by. Yes, it's a good reminder. One of the things that struck me was that for every batch we recycle, 70x that amount of rubbish was created in manufacture. Scarey stuff...

    Regards,

    Andrew
